A Valentine's Day Pillow

I finally put my Christmas pillows away. I didn't have any other covers that fit these pillow forms so the Christmas ones stayed on longer than they should have. I decided to pull a little fabric from my L'Amour stack and make a Valentine's pillow cover since I don't have any other Valentine's Day decorations.

I'm becoming a bit obsessed with diamonds. I completely blame Rachel. You definitely need to check out her fabulous Nook cover. I'm also slowly getting better at them. They are a little tricky. I unpicked several rows trying to get all those crazy points to line up. I did these the cheater way and saved myself lots of time. I put this guy together in two nap times.

It's always fun to make something completely from your stash, although I didn't even make a dent in my massive L'Amour stash. At least I used some of it.

I'm entering this pillow in the Blogger's Pillow Party over at Stitched in Color. Head over and check out all the other cute pillows list this month.

About Me

I am the mom to three busy little kiddos: a seven-year-old and five-year-old twins. I'm also the wife to a fabulous husband who tolerates and even supports most of my crafty endeavors. I love to sew, quilt, and take lots of photos, especially of my kiddos. Many of my creations happen from the blue chair. This is my sewing chair, one that I refurbished. It is among my favorite creations to date.
